Saving Time, Making Money: Thoughts on Sophisticated, Professional Grade Research Tools

Since 2012, I have been a satisfied customer of an online tool for researching grant funders that has been developed by Foundation Search, a Canadian organization.

I'm pleased to say it has really made a difference for our clients in winning foundation grants.

It has certainly organized our efforts and saved us time in finding the hottest prospects for our client's grant campaigns.

One of the most spectacular features of this grant research tool is that it allows us to search on the directors of the foundation that have already given you grants and then identify the other foundations where these people also serve as board members. This tool can be quite useful in identifying the easiest ways to build on your charity's reputation within the funding community - especially its top leadership.

I'm pleased it has made such a big difference for our efficiency and effectiveness as a grant writing consulting business.
